Ciao ! You have your first vote.
I have read for several years how you love the life in Korea , the people , the food , it's where you also found the love of your life.
Yet I'm not surprised you feel nostalgia for your homeland and the older you get the more you will feel that pull /call to return to your roots.
I enjoyed your colourful description of Berkeley it's obvious you cherish it.

Comment from Tom Horonzy
I loved the two years I lived in Coronado but that was fifty years ago before the state went further West than Greely
All the wrongs the state now holds belongs to those who vote the party line rather than cogent thought

I only had one problem with this: You said the city was "very unique." "Unique" means "one of a kind," and something can't be varying degrees of "one of a kind." I would recommend that you take out the "very" and leave it "A unique city." That's just my opinion, though, so feel free to ignore my suggestion.
I enjoyed this ode to your hometown. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

good points
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
I can tell you miss it, Jake! Your prose and poetry are as fast-paced and diverse as the town itself. I enjoyed this promotion for Berkeley and think you should definitely be submitting it to the tourist office there! Some edits right at the bottom of the main piece:
and so (much) more in short
Berkeley is an (?) of kind sort of place (is that 'one' of a kind sort..?)
Well done and good luck! Debbie
